“The term ‘Pastor’ is an office of the NT”

If it is an office then when each pastor dies they must be replaced or the office is left empty intell the it is filled. Pastor is a gift, along with Apostles, teachers etc., and they are gifts to the church as Eph 4 says. These people are gifts to the church. This is what Eph 4 says and since the people themselves are gifts how can what Christ gives be Offices? So Christ has people in line to fill the offices once they are opened back up? Christ gives offices or gifts to his church in Eph 4?
